Top Radio Breakfast Host to be Guest Speaker at Press Club

One of the UK’s top broadcast journalists, award-winning Nick Ferrari, is to be guest speaker at a Birmingham Press Club Celebrity Lunch on Friday 25 April, to be held at Park Regis Hotel, Birmingham, B15 1DT.

Tickets are priced at £70 each. Please make enquiry for payment to fbromwich@icloud.com and peter@brookesmedia.com

A three-course lunch will be preceded by a drinks reception from 12 noon to 12.30 pm.

Press Club president Bob Warman said: “Birmingham Press Club has always attracted speakers who are the titans of broadcasting and print. Nick Ferrari is right up there with them - a former showbiz editor and columnist, and for the last 20 years commanding the airwaves as the UK’s most talked about speech interviewer. Nick’s style is as seductive as it is powerful. A lunch event not to be missed.”

Nick, who this year celebrates 21 years as the host of LBC’s weekday breakfast show, is regarded as one of the nation’s most popular, respected and formidable speech broadcasters, being a champion of the radio phone-in where he puts his listeners in the driving seat to question and challenge those in government and leadership.

A journalist with a reputation as a straight-talking, tenacious broadcaster, he has over the past two decades interviewed thousands of national and world leaders from politics, business and entertainment.

Nick, also a regular on ITV’s This Morning programme, joined LBC – now the UK’s number one commercial news talk brand – in 2001 after a successful career in the national press, having been features editor of the News of the World’s Sunday magazine, editor of The Sun’s “Bizarre” page and assistant editor of the Daily Mirror.

He launched the brand-new Nick Ferrari at Breakfast show in 2004 – and is now the most-listened-to presenter on the station.
